Power supplies produce several different voltages. The failure of just one voltage level will cause some things to fail while other things still work.

I have other power supplies I can try, but why would the fans get power and nothing else?

I can take a bare CD drive, connect a power cable from an ATX supply, turn on the supply, and the light on the CD drive will blink. The tray will open and close. Replacing the power supply is a cheap and relatively easy repair.
